Online talk with live q&a @chawtonhouse Of False Hair, Bolstered Hips and Witchcraft: The Act of Parliament that Never Was
In this fascinating talk, award-winning speaker Alison Daniell discusses the Matrimonial Act 1770 (or, as it is more commonly known, The Hoops and Heels Act 1770), which ostensibly permitted husbands to divorce wives who had seduced and betrayed them into matrimony by using perfume, make-up, heels and other commonplace beauty aids
